The Lenovo 100e features an 11.6-inch (1368 x 768) display, MediaTek CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage. These low-power components would normally give us pause, but as a Chromebook, the 100e runs Google's lightweight Chrome OS. ChomeOS gives you access to productivity apps like Google Docs and Google Sheets, so it's not meant to replace your desktop. 

This MIL-SPEC tested laptop is built to withstand drops from up to 29.5", which is roughly the height of a school desk. Its port selection includes USB Type-C and USB 3.0 slots, as well as a microSD card reader. 

While it may not offer all the bells and whistles of pricier laptops out there, it's among the best budget laptops you can get and a solid option for students or anyone else looking for a budget laptop for basic tasks.
